793776 - Reader mode does not preserve "monospace" font

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Reader View, defect)

Description

[Sriram Ramasubramanian [:sriram]]

Attachment: Screenshot

If the page has <pre> or <code> or monospace font (to emphasize code), they aren't preserved in Reader mode.

Here is a test page:
http://www.quirksmode.org/js/events_order.html

In the screenshot, the jagged "element1", "element2" looks fine on original page.

You mean, it breaks lines? That's intentional. Another option could be to add scrollbars to preformatted elements, which I originally considered worse. Ian, what do you think?

I've tried to enable Reader Mode when visiting http://writersopt.com/ as the tips say, but there is no icon.
